Unfortunately I am unable to travel far from Bourne End. What is the rationale as to why all Bourne End conveyancing practitioners are not on all lender panels?
A decade ago most banks demonstrated an approach to risk which differs from the current day. The FSA in 2010 instigated a thematic review into mortgage fraud which in summary warned lenders: know the property lawyers on your panel. Accordingly, mortgage companies have since looked to extract more information from law firms regarding their operations and the staff who work for them and set certain criteria such as completing a minimum volume of transactions. Thousands of law practices have been excluded from lender panels even though they had an exemplary disciplinary record, no complaints and no claims and didn't just 'dabble' in conveyancing. Many firms were never going to meet the criteria of amount of transactions the mortgage companies insisted on.
At what point will exchange of contracts take place for purchase conveyancing in Bourne End and do I need to attend the solicitors branch?
If you are in close proximity to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Bourne End you are welcome to attend to sign the paperwork. That being said, the law practices we recommend supply countrywide coverage for conveyancing and provide as equally detailed and professional a job for you when communicating with you digitally. The executing of the property agreement is not the critical part. Signing on the dotted line is necessary for the firm to officially exchange when the time is right, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The exchange process is is usually a five minute process, although where an extended "chain" is involved, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Bourne End)to be in the office at the appropriate time.

Completion of my purchase has taken place for my property in Bourne End. Conveyancing was a necessary evil but I feel I should register my dissatisfaction about the lender. How do I make a complaint?
All lenders have complaints procedures. Your first point of contact should be one of the lender’s branches or the Customer Care Department at head office. In most cases complaints to a lender are resolved effectively and efficiently. If you feel the matter is not resolved you can write to Financial Ombudsman Service with full details of your complaint.
About to purchase apartment in Bourne End. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the UBS conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Bourne End conveyancer is on the UBS conveyancing panel.
